Eventful run at the Armed Forces 1/2 Marathon - someone moved the halfway marker, so we did an extra 1.5 miles for Chesty 💀 the Marines definitely had the best aid station 🦅🌎⚓️

Common misconception: I’d make more using my degree on the civilian side.
Marine officer pay is highly competitive for new college graduates AND the leadership experience that comes along with it is unmatched.

Mini-OCS weekend was a success! From 21 - 23 April, our applicants and candidates got to experience a weekend aboard Camp Dodge, Iowa in which they ran a PFT, learned the basics of close order drill, executed a Leadership Reaction Course (LRC), Small Unit Leader Evaluation (SULE), confidence course, and gained some valuable advice from the OCS staff! If you think you may have what it takes to lead Marines, contact our office!
